Allright, I have been thinking about this old game for a while now, I had some fun with it when I first played it, but then I encountered a bug and would have had to start all over again, so instead, I took it back to EB and they gave me something else.

Thing is, I have kinda been wanting to play it for a while now. Even though it was a bit buggy.

It was made by the old Red Storm game company, and it was about aliens who had conquered the planet, and you play a woman who reluctantly joins the resistance and fights the aliens. It was more of an adventure game than an action game, as I recall, and although some of it was bad, I still kinda liked it.

As for why anyone would want to play it, I am somewhat.... "quirky". Sometimes I enjoy the hell out of a game no one else likes. For instance, I really loved Project Eve. I played it from start to finish, and loved every minute of it.

I tried to get a friend of mine to play Project Eve through with me, and after 4.5 minutes of it he just looked at me, as if to say "We aren't friends anymore dude. Perhaps you could leave now."

I do remember that OMM review. I also remember (with the help of OMM) the strange monitor noises, and the stupid way of reloading after death. And still I hope to find a copy of it somewhere.

:oops:

odd, we must be the only people on the planet who liked project eve. funny enough, i got the same look too from my friend when we tried playing it together. i think we ended up playing tribes 2 instead.

I don't have a CRT monitor any more, it will be ... interesting ... to see what happens when Freedom First Resistance puts my Flatscreen through its paces...

I sure hope it doesn't blow it up. But if it does, I will have an excellent excuse for buying a newer, better flatscreen.

As for people not liking Project Eve, I have noticed that when I play with my friends, most of them would rather compete with me and try to kill me than play a game where we work together to accomplish goals. The only exception to this rule were the Rainbow Six games. We had fun playing together against the computer, but I think even that was (for them) a competition to see who would be the last player standing...

Personally, I prefer working with my friends, and not trying to kill each other. I have never enjoyed competition. I have never cared if I was better at something than one of my friends, and it infuriates me when I am lousy at something, and they inevitably rub it in.
